Dream Evil

Feeling there are monsters under your bed
A vein is pulsating inside your head
You begin to see your own nightmare unfold
And you start to feel so cold
Feeling so restless as you try to sleep
You get lost when counting sheep
Your eyes are closed but you can see a face
As your heart begins to gather pace
You are staring at a figure in a blackened cloak
And you try to determine his masterstroke
You try to wake up but your sleep gets deeper and deeper
As you visualise the menacing grim reaper
It's dark and the mist is creeping around
You realise that your nightmare has taken you to the underground
Trying to claw your way back to consciousness
Everything around you is so conspicuous
You try to scream but the words don't come out
No one can hear you when shout
The air is freezing and dead trees are staring at you
They are strange and stunted as they never really grew
You suddenly begin to fall to your feet
As the oxygen around you starts to deplete
Within minutes a tall dark shadow is standing over you
And thoughts race through your mind all but a few
For now you realise there is nowhere to hide
As you have been taken to the dark side
You tremble and shake and begin to weep
Because if you die in your nightmare then you have died in your sleep
